Hm. You used to be able to designate the direction of search.

I knew something about it bothered me but wasn't quite sure what it was. One thing you can do to remedy this is set a jump-point before you start typing in quick-search. It does seem to me that BBEdit should remember where you started your search though. > Third, both Sumblime and Vim optionally accept regex in their live-search. > (one of the reasons I developed my own script) I keep requesting this. There's not a really good regular expression prototyper for the Mac (that I know of), although there are some that aren't just terrible. So this feature would serve more than one purpose. It would expand the usefulness of live-find and serve as a basic regex prototyping tool. > Fourth (and I recognize that this is a personal preference), the panel that > pops down moves the content of the window down 2 lines (to make room for the > panel). Yeah. I've never liked that either. -- Best Regards, Chris -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
